IMF Chief Held Without Bail on Sexual Assault Charges

The head of the International Monetary Fund is being held without bail in New York on charges of sexual assault, following a complaint by a hotel maid.

Lawyers for Dominique Strauss-Kahn say he is not guilty, and has agreed to undergo a forensic examination as police gather more evidence in the case.

He appeared in a New York court Monday. He faces up to 25 years in prison.
